Lemar: A Glimmer of Hope at the Metropolitano

2025-04-16 Marca

Thomas Lemar, after a difficult season marked by a serious injury suffered in September 2023, showed a glimpse of his quality in the match against Valladolid. The Frenchman, who has not managed to regain his best form since the 20-21 season, when he was key in winning the League, showed flashes of that decisive player.

Despite the difficulties, the coaching staff has always valued his talent, the one that led Atlético to invest a significant sum in his signing in 2018. Although injuries have been a constant obstacle, the minutes he played at the Metropolitano against Valladolid were a ray of light.

Lemar demonstrated his technical quality and took advantage of his opportunities, showing an improved version compared to his last appearances. He even had a scoring opportunity after a great team play.

With a contract until 2027, the club’s sports management is considering his departure in the next market. The idea is to facilitate his departure, possibly assuming part of his salary, as was done with Saúl. A good performance by Lemar in the next matches would facilitate his departure and open new opportunities for both him and Atlético.

2025-04-15 Marca

Reinildo Mandava, a defensive pillar, has received a well-deserved tribute for reaching 100 matches with Atlético de Madrid. The Mozambican defender was honored by Enrique Cerezo at the Metropolitano, a recognition of his dedication and commitment to the red and white shirt.

This milestone comes at a crucial moment, as his contract expires on June 30. Reinildo, who became a key player since his arrival in the winter market, suffered a serious injury that kept him away from the field.

However, his defensive solvency and ability to perform both as a central defender and left back make him a valuable asset to the team. In the coming weeks, the player’s future will be defined. The club faces important changes in the defensive line, with the possible departure of some players.

Reinildo’s continuity could be great news for the fans, who value his professionalism and dedication in every match. His versatility and commitment make him a player appreciated by the coaching staff and fundamental for the team’s balance. The board must make an important decision about his future, taking into account his performance, his value within the locker room and the team’s needs.

Thomas: A Return to the Metropolitano?

2025-04-15 Marca

Atlético de Madrid is eyeing a possible return for Thomas Partey, currently at Arsenal, whose contract expires in June. The sports management, led by Carlos Bucero, sees in the Ghanaian the piece to complete the rojiblanco midfield, a latent desire for several transfer windows.

At 31 years old, Thomas remains a key player at Arsenal, but the English club’s interest in Zubimendi and the expiration of his contract open a window of opportunity for Atlético.

Trained in the rojiblanca Academy and having been a fundamental pillar for Simeone before his departure to the Premier League, Thomas would fit perfectly into Cholo’s scheme. His knowledge of the club, the style of play and the Spanish league would allow him immediate performance.

However, his return will not be easy. His status as a free agent and his proven quality make him a coveted target for many clubs. Atlético must move quickly to avoid a bidding war that complicates his signing.

The arrival of Thomas would not only provide a leap in quality to the midfield, complementing players like De Paul, Barrios and Koke, but would also fulfill the desire for a guaranteed ‘5’ that the team has been looking for since the Ghanaian’s departure. After several failed attempts and the fruitless search for alternatives, Thomas presents himself as the ideal solution to strengthen a key position in Simeone’s scheme and enhance the team’s aspirations.

Julián Álvarez: From River's youth academy to world star

2025-04-15 Marca

The story of Julián Álvarez is an inspiring example of talent, effort, and dedication. From his beginnings in River Plate’s youth academy, the young Argentinian showed exceptional quality that would catapult him to the elite of world football.

At 15, he joined the club’s youth ranks, living in the boarding house inside the stadium and studying at the club’s school, a clear example of River’s commitment to the comprehensive development of its young promises.

Roberto Gustavo ‘Tito’ Gil, coordinator of Casa River, remembers Julián as a simple and approachable person, who shared moments watching the Champions League with his teammates. One anecdote that stands out is ‘Tito’s unfulfilled promise to make him a ball boy, a step that his meteoric rise prevented him from taking.

Claudio Moscardini, a teacher at Colegio River, highlights the humility, camaraderie, and values ​​of the club that always characterized Julián. His teammates already sensed his goalscoring instinct, a quality that would define him as a footballer.

Marcelo Gallardo was key to his arrival in the first team, where he debuted in the 18-19 Super League. In 2022, he made the leap to Manchester City, establishing himself as a global figure. However, in River Plate, and surely in the hearts of many Atlético de Madrid fans, they still dream of his return. Julián Álvarez embodies the values ​​and competitive spirit that we so admire in the world of football.
